Sunraysia Television

Sunraysia Television is the publically-listed parent company of Swan Television and Radio Broadcasters, owners of STW-9 (Channel 9 Perth). Sunraysia TV is owned by majority-owner Eva Presser , who owns around 55% of the company. WIN Television owns 40% of the company. It is affiliated with the Nine Network.

Sunraysia Television started out in Sunraysia, the area around and including Mildura. It operated a single TV licence, known as STV-8 . In the 1980's it was purchased by Ms Presser.

After the colapse of previous owner, Bond Media, STW-9 was sold to Sunraysia Television (then largely owned by Eva Presser). Ms Presser simultanously sold STV-8 to Southern Cross Broadcasting. Sunraysia Television no longer had any assets in Sunraysia.

Eva's husband Dan runs the Sunraysia Natural Beverages company , which similarly has no ties to the Sunraysia region. The Pressers use the term as their personal brand name. Which is somewhat ironic as the name is derived from a 1920's dried fruit advertising campaign, for the ADFA - an entity with no connections to the Pressers.
